remember that Neil Young song, "Keep on rockin' in the free world" ? only mentioning, but I think this is what Irwin is referring to. Rocking your world.

Alternate World:
Irwin! We WERE rocking our world! But your rocked world bled into ours, cancelling it out!
Everyone was like, "I thought we were rockin! What happened?" But it was you! Rock WITH us, not against us! Or else put up a vibration wall on the edge of your dimension, and keep it to yourselves!

yep, I definitely heard a beeped curse word. Now that is what I call rocking your world. My world. is rocked.

If you're heading out to the Eastern Shore this summer, stop by any of our stores on the beaches' boardwalks! Fudge, taffy and other goodies--we are as FUDGED up as they say!

@Tommy: Good question--without butter, us Yanks would just dump mayo on it instead.

This guy is clearly overestimating our usage of butter. Don't they have partially-hydrogenated soybean oil in Norway? That's what a lot of use (even if we don't realize it because not enough of us look at the ingredients of what we buy). Europeans love butter way more than we do.

Whose version of Four Organs is this in the background?

You know WE'RE laughing at our neighbors to the north, what a predicament! :D

@GoT: Pea Hicks, "Four Optigans"

Matt from Springfield:
Is this from Robert Alberg's Christmas Album?
If he doesn't have one, Robert should "cover" Bob Dylan's Christmas Album.

Matt from Springfield:
@Irwin,George: Was that bed music a cover of this Steve Reich piece then?

Thanks Irwin! I had never heard it before... Pea is the Optigan master.

"A 1973 performance of Four Organs at Carnegie Hall in New York City nearly caused a riot, with "yells for the music to stop, mixed with applause to hasten the end of the piece." One of the performers, Michael Tilson Thomas, recalls: "One woman walked down the aisle and repeatedly banged her head on the front of the stage, wailing 'Stop, stop, I confess.'" "

WFMU DJs can judge the effectiveness of their programming when listeners bang their heads on the WFMU building wailing for it to stop.

Carmichael:
HIya Irwin, hey peoples. I would comment more, but I can't bear to have that freaky looking thing staring at me.

Andrew Waterloo:
What's confusing about WFMU, particularly shows like Irwin's, is what music is driving people nuts exactly?

Headbang all you want -- as long as you confess...

Allmusic wrote a good review of Robert Alberg's latest, though they too admitted they liked his old stuff better.

Nothing is better than Jandek. Not even Amanda.

@Carm: Well I can't agree with THAT--I'm too big of an Amandiac.

Matt from Springfield:
Is that really Tommy? What kind of trolls do Norwegians turn into when they don't eat enough butter??

Wed. 7/25/12 4:26pm
Andrew Waterloo:
Tommy gets a little raw when he has no butter.

Neat-O, Berb-O!
WFMU listeners like myself are currently working to build a meeting-seeking missile, to remove those dreadful interruptions to the listening day.
